Elon Musk fancies himself some kind of maverick technologist superhero. But he’s no Tony Stark. He’s PHONY Stark. He’s the one the Avengers defeat at the end of the movie.

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office. Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc. Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Appointed by President Biden, he was just sworn-in on January 2nd and along with the Chairman of the Joint chiefs of Staff, Trump fired them both today. You can probably infer the reasons why both were fired just from this picture.

From 12/24, before President Musk took charge. Given that DOGE, Musk and Trump have been decimating NASA staff, to include engineers and scientists, this last sentence is even more alarming: "The space agency has not yet confirmed where the ISS' remains are expected to land."

Medicaid is not for sale. NASA is not for sale. The Post Office is not for sale. America is not for sale. We have an obligation to resist kings. We outnumber them. And they can be overwhelmed.

I guess they don't want this shared all over social media. So feel free to do so.

DOGE has gained access to our Social Security system, and now Musk is spreading lies about massive fraud all so we greenlight his taking an ax to everything. I call out his B.S. in today’s piece: https://buff.ly/3X5uNPt

Looks like we're going to have to buy some books on the list that we don't already have and do a little reading.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

George is 100% right. This was one of the biggest fears of our founders, plus some good subsequent presidents; the rich taking over our country and installing a figurehead (in this case, a buffoon worse than George W. Bush) while they run roughshod over the people and the world.

This is a great book to read when you need a break. The same goes for her "Lady Astronaut of Mars" book.

Trailer looks good...so maybe? We're huge fans of the "How to Train Your Dragon" movies (3) and series (2). That's where Hiccup (our Black Lab) got his name from. I'm not a huge fan of live action from animation but sometimes Hollyweird gets it right, so I'll wait and see.

So a couple of days ago when I suddenly stopped spending time here, it was because I saw an article saying that an order came down to remove pages about women in NASA and it set my hair on FIRE So I went straight to The Lady Astronaut series because 1. fuck you! 2. The new book is coming out soon.

Donald Trump's second term instantly kicked off with an onslaught of cruel and sometimes unconstitutional orders. These orders take aim at a long list of perceived enemies: trans families, immigrants, Democrats, and so forth. Here's who is on the target list—and how they plan on fighting back.
